Fictional History

Before comics

Philipnova798 was born as Phil W. Takay to parents Vakama and Nokama. He worked as Turaga Nuju's first translator. After this, he then went to Ko-Koro Community Collage. This was where he met Toa of Matrix, the two then became the best of friends and did almost everything together. They were even roommates. One day though, when ToM and Phil were on a camping trip. They ran into a matoran who suggested that the two should start a job as comic makers. The Matoran in Particular was a recently infected Dark709

The comic years

After their time at Ko-Koro Community Collage. The two formed a comic series known as Toa of Matrix and Philipnova's Comic Cavalcade (it doesn't exist just to tell you). But after three years, the two split because of creative differences. They remained close friends though.

In Between Comics

Phil was just living like a normal Matoran. Then one day, a stampede of Karata ran over Phil and made him black and green. He started to make his own comics and hired characters. The original cast included The Toa, Gatling Gun Henry, Hahli, Jaller, Koi Boy, The Phil Band, Hewkii, Bob, Onepu Nuva, Godzilla, Blob Guy and a bunch of generics. He quit after three comics and was soon trampled by another stampede of Karata. Causing him to become the Dark grey, red eyed, copper hand and footed matoran he is today.

Old Phil meets his updated (and current) form.

Real life history

The first three comics

Prior to the release of Comics Factory, Phil made 3 rather poor quality comics (two of which have since been remade). They introduced the majority of his current cast and also included a character named Blob Guy, originally a villain in the planning stages.

Philipnova798's comic factory 1.0

A while (or rather three-four months) had passed and Phil started to make comics again. The result was The original Philipnova798's Comic Factory. Unfortunately the comics were closed after five comics were released due to topic revival. But a about a month he made a new series of comics. this now leads us to...

And VakamaTK's Comics (Where he burned down VakamaTK's studio, then got cought in a explosion, then helped out fight the RZBots, was seen on a plane traveling from Meta Nui and was seen in Blade Titan's birthday comic among the guests)

He also has close ties with Toa Humva of Alex PGSing in one series (and eventually, used as a character in his subsequent series, without Phil's permission interestingly enough). This was referenced when Alex guest stared in Comics Factory.

He was also mentioned in Bladeran's Birthday comic and was set to appear in Blade's series before the comic he was in the middle of making was scrapped.

He has also been seen in the series Snooze as a figment of Skorpyo's imagination. He'll be a recurring character as the series focuses a bit on Skorp's Past.

Authoring duties

He is (or has, depending whether the series is closed or not) also a Co-Author in (The now dead and gone) The Great Race, Ravnica: City of Guilds, the aforementioned Comics of the Morons and Nuparurocks` Comics, in which he has been given the job to fill the postioin as the Daily strip distributor for Ennar while he's gone (in addition to being a co-author). Ironic as Comics Factory also experimented in the Daily format as filler. He has also been signed on for Venom's Civil War series.

He is also Jack The Ripper (and Spirit) in an abridged series of the Anime Soul Eater and Magicman (among others) in a Megaman NT Warrior fan dub. He has also been confirmed for Transformers The Movie abridged as Starscream, Cyclonus, four of the Constructicons (Scrapper, Mixmaster, Scavenger and Bonecrusher), Kup and Kickback. He also serves as writer for that particular project.

He is also the co-leader of the MachinAbrigersTeam. A team that does Machinimas and Abridged series.
